But what I see every day? CEOs with anorexia. Lawyers binge eating in office bathrooms. Doctors struggling in silence with exercise compulsion. Corporate executives who haven't eaten lunch in six months because they're \"too busy.\" 73% of women in corporate and professional environments report engaging in at least one disordered eating behavior. And if you're a high-performing woman who feels trapped but can't connect the dots—this episode is for you. Because your workplace might be feeding your eating disorder.

Your value is based on performance. And this mindset gets you promote…","meta_description":"When people hear \"eating disorder,\" they picture a young stick-figure girl in ballet class.
